Harald Johnson was the man who brought a lot of features to FGFS like the 
volumetric shadows, the clouds and later he tried to implement reflection with 
fresnel effect.

With switching to OSG he disappeared like so much other developers, but you can 
try asking hin- mybe he will help.

I had just few days ago contact in IRC, where he told me that there one 
important thing for the shadows given by OSG don't work in FGFS and try to 
figure out why.
